Hi Terri,
Just read that you are hosting a SAORI Conference, that is exciting. I will keep myself posted about what is happening. Just noticing that you do not have Knotty Threads Studio and Local Artisans Gallery on your Fibre links, do you know my website? Knotty Threads is on that site. Since I am a local weaver and sell local hand spun yarns it might be relevant to your readers to know about us! Presently Mary Paddon and Toni Green( who learned on the Saori loom at Wind Flower Moon) are weaving in this space as well.
Thanks
Jane
